The fact that google has two completely separate products called Android Auto and Android Automotive is so confusing and dumb

It's so confusing that people mix the infotainment OS with the Android connectivity app. Both have their use cases, but Google really needs to rebrand one of these.

I'm sure one will get randomly cancelled for not being instantly the most successful product ever invented before the end of the week given Google's track record.

First they have to integrate Google Meet with it so they can have three Meet clients.

I'm sure Automotive OEMs will love that after investing all the engineering and hardware needed.

Android Automotive OS is a blank slate for car manufacturers to customize and claim is their own creation, consumers will never know it exists.

It's definitely not great, but considering one is for consumers and the other is explicitly not it's not that bad.

Wait until they rename it to Google One Play Roam... Or something equally as stupid

My bet is Google Drive... No wait...
